Coolmax I-500 500W ATX 12V V2.0 Power Supply(not compatible with PCI-E)

These power supplies are perfect for older computers. They have way fewer parts inside and don't heat up as their original counterparts from 20 years ago. They're also much lighter as a result, but I think they will have greater longevity, producing less heat, and using newer components. Very satisfied and will likely buy more, to retrofit a retro PC collection, where the PSU's are beginning to fail of old age. I've read many comments about bad or burning up power supplies, and I guess there's a high proportion that shares factory defects, but mine is absolutely fine. Maybe I got lucky, or maybe the failure will take place down the line, in which case, I'll update the review. I intent to use there with pre-pentium era retro machines. Those draw under 150W, so I'm not really stressing the power supply at all. I do not doubt the fact that the real power rating is 250W max (and not 500W, like the box claims). Just keep it under a lite load. For serious projects, buy rated PSU's for double the price. Don't expect miracles in this price category.

Used this "Coolmax I-500 500W ATX 12V V2.0 Power Supply (not compatible with PCI-E)" PSU to get an old Athlon II based PC quicly back up and running. Original PSU is SFX form factor and is one of those briefly manufacured around 2005 or so and having a very high current rating on the 3.3V and 5V rails. The now-failed original had ratings of 3.3V @ 22A and 5V @ 30A. A modern replacement SFX form factor PSU of suitable ratings seems to be unavailable - even the premium high power 800W or 1000W SFX PSU's don't supply anywhere near this much current on the 3.3V and 5V rails. This Coolmax PSU is ATX form factor (big) and should not and does not fit the subject PC's SFX form factor (small) case. It was therefore strapped to the side of the PC's case, and the case's cover left off. The Coolmax-provided cables were sufficiently long to reach the motherboard. This jury-rigged external PSU setup is working well. All output voltages are right on spec, and the Coolmax PSU runs cool, even though the Coolmax's 5V rail is rated at somewhat less current than that of the original PSU. The original PSU will be repaired and reinstalled as time permits, but until then, the old PC will chug on, powered by the externally-mounted Coolmax.

Cuenta con cables sata necesarios para instalación de discos SSD y HDD así como tarjeta grafica y conexión de 4 y 8 pines a motherboard

Great product&Power cable included& Easy to install& Very useful and functional & If you want the PC power supply to turn on to test it Connect the green wire on the harness to the black wire & then your PC press play will turn on

My desktop PC, HP Pavillian, power supply was gone. So I ordered this . I receive today and replaceed old one. New one, this item, is very light, cheap, and work very well now. Further the shipping was so quick. Just one day! I am very satisfy on this item. If I found any, I will edit my review, but I don't want that kind of.
